Thanks SO MUCH for all your support, and we'll see you in-game!
I don't have a good comparison pic of them in-game right now to take a look. However, the Constitution is already more massive due to its secondary hull (the part with engineering). Therefore, it is already bigger.
As for the sabre appearance, I noticed that the Ship Listing page has a small picture of the sabre that is pretty close to correct (NONE of the ships are perfect replicas of what we saw in the shows, corners have been cut because it is an MMO). Perhaps it can be made to look like this with the correct parts? I might have to grab one and see.
As an aside, I think the problem stems from the lack of consistency in the Star Trek special effects department. They have always seemed to think that the viewer is too stupid to work out what ship is powerful and what isn't on their own or from dialogue. So they change the relative sizes of ships from episode to episode, and some times from shot to shot.
Ex Astris Scientia has some good methodology and concrete data on ship sizes. They also have some good articles discussing the size related shape shifting that occurs in the shows.

That is how it should be the Connie being larger, but there is no sizable difference in game. The saucer section is smaller than a Miranda, and the secondary hull just isn't scaled correctly.

I'll punch up some images tomorrow using the reference sizes so we can see what they should look like when compared from the top instead of just the side. That will give us all a better perspective on this.
